Is there a way to change multiple file type associations at once?

Question

I like testing out the Beta of Photoshop, but I don't always want to use it as sometimes it feels a little laggy and I don't want to have to go in and set up all my brushes and workspace and stuff. Unfotunately, Bridge always defaults file type associations to the Beta version. Is there a way to change every file type association to the regular release of photoshop at once or a way to exclude the beta version of a program? If not, there should be.

No, there is not (and I've been asking for this for at least 10 years).

There should be a command that let's (e.g.) Photoshop Beta controls to Photoshop 2026. Realizing that there may be issues, such as when capabilities and/or other applications move on. For example, when Flash was removed many years ago, there would have been issues in such a global change. But the extra time involved in dealing with this would have been insignificant to amount of time saved otherwise.
